As closure of the ADRIART project and in the context of Media Arts and Practices master study program, the ADRIART partners are organizing MAP in MOTION festival, which is being held separately at different locations. The Ljubljana edition of the MAP in MOTION festival will see on July 14 seen a symposium and exhibition and in late summer a screening (September 3) and a dance-theatre show (August 20). The symposium will present specific progressive parts of the internationally oriented master programme in Media Arts and Practices. An important part of the symposium presents the artist talk, where artists-students are given the possibility to present their work. In the last part of the symposium we invite to an open discussion »Studying in art – Studio in the city«, and later in the evening to a guided tour and vernissage of the exhibition of works by students from University of Nova Gorica School of Arts and Academy of Applied Arts of University of Rijeka in Alkatraz Gallery.

This year's 3d-modelling&materialization workshop "GRAB.ROG.LAND, a MonoMaterialisation of Rog" is based on a student's game concept GRABROGLAND.doc (Peter Mišic, University of Nova Gorica School of Arts) from the 2012/13 workshop "LOGOS, Multitude Manifestations of Rog".

After the rather optimistic kickoff on 12.12.12. at 12:12:12 and -12 Centigrades, the baffling "online month" began. We were all more/less trying to make "joint online preparation of international workshop participants" actually happen. For what? For the "LOGOS - Multitude Manifestations of Rog" short mobility run within our bravely piloting "Media Arts and Practices" programme. What for?

University of Nova Gorica is organizing an international 3D printing workshop in RogLab Ljubljana on the theme Logos - Multitude manifestations of Rog. 2 spaces are availabel for general public. Application deadline: Deceber 5 2012. Workshop Kickoff contact and start of online research and preparation phase December 10, 2012 and onward, workshop on site January 10-12, 2013.

In one month of joint online preparation international participants of the workshop have acquired the basics of parametric 3d-modelling and -printing. In parallel they did research on the existing practices and discourses in and around Rog - to scrape out possible identification pathways for developing algorithmic artefacts.

Those logo-like objects have been interactively finalized in situ and materialized in an intensive 3-day workshop at RogLab [roglab.si]. In the end they illustrated the formalizing process of identity hypotheses, rather than codify the characteristics of Rog. All of which are intended to be concrete statements and unfinished contributions at the same time.
